The Democratic Party path to their national future

Is the path about National Interests, or is it about the Party’s political power and financial income of its party politicians who vote to solicit personal and party income? These days “career politician” is a fact of life term.

The analogy to the “if a tree falls in the forest, does anyone hear it” question comes to mind at times like this. Does anything a “generic” Democratic national politician does even matter, unless reported by the mainstream media? If not for the MSM, would we Americans even hear it?

One historical opinion is that the media selected and promoted Clinton’s election, and are now trying to recreate it again with Obama. It will be interesting to see if the Democratic Party leaders go along again for the ride. Can the MSM be the leaders, or are they just the Party reverberaters? Just who is making the “noise” we read about and hear?

The other and very interesting question about “noise” is that of the “tail wagging the dog”. Are the most bitter and conspiracy oriented Americans able to generate enough “noise” to affect the Democratic Party? A smarter generic national democrat would not pander to these types, but these days are different, and “noise” does get a lot of attention for those seeking a national party nomination. Most of Americans who do not hear the “noise” think otherwise.

Thinking otherwise is another point. Are the Democratic national leaders just plotting to gain power, or is gaining power a means to some socialist agenda for our Country? In the latter case, can we get a chance to vote on it?
